| For "Island Revolution," the first major exhibition since the Seattle museum's opening, EMP asked Triplecode to create two kiosks on Jamaican music. The first, "The Streets of Kingston," introduce museum visitors to the vibrancy of the Jamaican music scene in Kingston, between 1953 and 1971. It allows visitors to explore the town using an engaging draggable viewfinder. This unique interface encourages visitors to discover the vibrancy of the era through its key locations and producers. Because of the museum's structure, it was expected that the average visitor would only spend three minutes (at most) using the kiosk. After our initial design research we determined that it would be best if the kiosk's emphasis was placed on communicating a feeling for the density of activity within the city – rather than an encyclopedia approach to the content. This was accomplished by allowing the user to wander around the town and see all of the music-related locations and producers. To encourage people to interact with the kiosk, the interface is based on a draggable viewfinder. Enabling the user to feel in-control of what is happening on the screen, that they pay more attention to the kiosk, and are less easily distracted by what is happening in the rest of the exhibit space. In addition, they get a better feeling for the kiosk's content. The kiosk has a second screen – a large overhead monitor which can be seen throughout the exhibit space. Rather than simply mirror the touch-screen, the second screen displays imagery related to the location the user is currently exploring. This abstracted display helps create a mood for the entire exhibit space. |
